4 days agoBlogs like these drive me fucking crazy: there’s a primary source out there, why not just link to that at the end of your (evidently pointless) opinion piece?
It’s almost like they know their commentary isn’t adding anything and they’re worried we’ll click away immediately.
I’m not harping on OP. If they thought it was worth sharing, great.
The people whom I take umbrage with are those who make a blog post that is reporting on a public announcement (E.g. Signal’s news post on their website) without linking to said announcement.
You’re not talking about world events with your reporter on the scene - your entire post is literally “someone else posted something to the internet!”; linking to it is the bare minimum required, if you ask me.
